Touring tires

OK all you 15" steelies.... Anyone running touring tires? I'm thinking of some 205/65 touring tires. Any thoughts on brand, or traction? Since I have a GXE with orig suspension its kind of a waste to get Perf tires. Saw some Yamaha tourings on sale for $45/tire.

You may want to try tirerack.com to find tires that fit your needs, and although I have the 16" SE rims, I can help you out on a few good 15" touring tires since I had an Altima w/ 15" wheels, maybe these could work for you

- Bridgestone Turanza LS-H

It's never a waste of time or $$ to get nice tires. You'd be amazed how much the right tires can transform your car.

Anyway, I will recommend what I always do, the Bridgestone Potenza RE950. Hands down, the best all season performance tire. I think they are about $80 each for 205/65-15...and worth every penny. I've had mine (215/60-15 on stock steelies) for about a year and a half now, I love em.

Tires I've had in the past on my car (none of which comes close):

Goodyear Eagle GA
Toyo Proxes H4
Bridgestone Potenza RE930
